Andrew Gruft Passes Away
Andrew Gruft, a prominent member of the Canadian architectural and cultural community, has died. Gruft, 84, was Professor Emeritus at the University of British Columbia?s School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture and a fierce advocate for design culture in Vancouver and beyond. With his life partner Claudia Beck, he also gained renown as an important collector, curator, dealer and advocate of photo-based art, establishing the first commercial gallery on the West Coast to specialize in photography. The couple later made a substantial donation of photo-based artworks to the Vancouver Art Gallery. Gruft?s other projects include Substance Over Spectacle, a 2005 book and exhibition project that focused on contemporary Canadian architecture. Canadian Architect will publish a comprehensive tribute in a future edition.
